The Awful and Awesome Entertainment Wrap Ep 132: The Sky is Pink, Project Streedhan, and more

This episode of the Awful and Awesome Entertainment Wrap features Rajyasree Sen and Abhinandan Sekhri.

It kicks off with the duo discussing The Sky is Pink. Its director is Shonali Bose, who previously directed Amu, which Rajyasree quite liked. Rajyasree says the movie will appeal to people who have lost somebody close to them. Both, however, humorously add, “You don’t have to be a lion to appreciate Lion King.” “You don’t have to be a zebra to appreciate Madagascar.

Abhinandan says he can’t get over the catchphrase of Safi’s new advertisement: “Taste karoge hate, face banega great.” 

They also review the viral Project Streedhan, an advertisement that targets women suffering from anaemia and urges them to invest in their health. Abhinandan, though, remarks, “It is a fantastic piece of audio-visual production, it has nothing to do with the messaging.”

They also discuss Amazon Prime’s Modern Love that is based on The New York Times column of the same title. While Abhinandan is not all praise for it, Rajyasree says, “It’s like Love Actually but not as good.”

Among other things, they also talk about the Netflix series The Laundromat and the documentary Tell Me Who I am. Rajyasree also reviews a few Zomato Originals episodes that she watched.
